Suzuki's GT-380J is the smallest of their new
range of three-cylinder touring bikes for 1972. The engineering philosophy
behind this series is proclaimed by the GT (Gran Tourismo) designation. As
conceived by the Italian car makers, a GT vehicle summons a certain state of
mind on the road: a state of mind that depends largely upon the operator's
assurance of being in control. Beyond that aura of physical extension lie the
aspects of aesthetic appeal, both to the owner and bystanders, and a lot of
creature comfort for the owner and his favorite passenger.
